The Case of One Who Makes a Will for al-Hajj, and It Is Performed from a Place Other than What the Will Requires, or the Will Says Something Less in al-Hajj
4ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنِ ابْنِ رِئَابٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) فِي رَجُلٍ أَوْصَى أَنْ يُحَجَّ عَنْهُ حَجَّةُ الإِسْلامِ فَلَمْ يَبْلُغْ جَمِيعُ مَا تَرَكَ إِلاَّ خَمْسِينَ دِرْهَماً قَالَ يُحَجُّ عَنْهُ مِنْ بَعْضِ الأَوْقَاتِ الَّتِي وَقَّتَهَا رَسُولُ الله (صلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) مِنْ قُرْبٍ.
4. Ahmad ibn Muhammad from has narrated from ibn Mahbub from ibn Ri’ab who has said the following: “About a man who dies and in his will says to perform Hajjahta al-Islam for him, but his legacy is not sufficient. It is altogether fifty dirham. Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘It must be performed for him from any one of the Miqat (place for assuming the state of Ihram) from which the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, assumed the state of Ihram.’”
5ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ أَوْ عَنْ رَجُلٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنِ ابْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ عَمَّنْ سَأَلَ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) عَنْ رَجُلٍ أَوْصَى بِعِشْرِينَ دِرْهَماً فِي حَجَّةٍ قَالَ يَحُجُّ بِهَا رَجُلٌ مِنْ مَوْضِعٍ بَلَغَهُ.
5. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Muhammad ibn Sinan or a man from Muhammad ibn Sinan from ibn Muskan from abu Sa‘id who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who in his will has said to perform al- Hajj for him, but has left behind twenty dirham for al-Hajj. He (the Imam) said, ‘A man can perform it for him from wherever it is sufficient.’”

The Case of One Who Is Paid for al-Hajj but It Is Not Enough or Is Paid and He Gives It to Someone Else
1ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ قَالَ أَمَرْتُ رَجُلاً يَسْأَلُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَأْخُذُ مِنْ رَجُلٍ حَجَّةً فَلا تَكْفِيهِ أَ لَهُ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ أُخْرَى وَيَتَّسِعَ بِهَا وَيُجْزِئُ عَنْهُمَا جَمِيعاً أَوْ يُشْرِكُهُمَا جَمِيعاً إِنْ لَمْ تَكْفِهِ إِحْدَاهُمَا فَذَكَرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ أَنْ تَكُونَ خَالِصَةً لِوَاحِدٍ فَإِنْ كَانَتْ لا تَكْفِيهِ فَلا يَأْخُذْهَا.
1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn ‘Isma‘il who has said the following: “I once instructed a man to ask abu al-Hassan (a.s.), about a man who receives an amount to perform al-Hajj but it is not sufficient. Can he get additional amount from other persons to combine and make them as partners, or that al-Hajj is only for one of them? He quoted him (the Imam) as having said, ‘I like it to be for one of them only, but if it is not sufficient, he must not take such amount.’”
2ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ جَعْفَرٍ الأَحْوَلِ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عِيسَى قَالَ قُلْتُ لأَبِي الْحَسَنِ الرِّضَا (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) مَا تَقُولُ فِي الرَّجُلِ يُعْطَى الْحَجَّةَ فَيَدْفَعُهَا إِلَى غَيْرِهِ قَالَ لا بَأْسَ بِهِ.
2. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Ya’qub ibn Yazid from Ja’far al-Ahwal from ‘Uthman ibn ‘Isa who has said the following: “I once asked al-Rida’ (a.s.), about a man who receives an amount to perform al-Hajj but he gives it to someone else. He (the Imam) said, ’It is not harmful.’”
3ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَسِّنِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ أَبَانٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) رَجُلٌ أُوصِيَ بِحَجَّةٍ فَلَمْ تَكْفِهِ قَالَ فَيُقَدِّمُهَا حَتَّى يُحَجَّ دُونَ الْوَقْتِ.
3. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Muhsin ibn Ahmad from Aban from ‘Imran ibn Yazid who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who says in his will to perform al-Hajj for him but the amount is not sufficient. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is performed from nearby before Miqat (place for assuming the state of Ihram).”’

Performing al-Hajj on Behalf of One Who Does Not Follow One’s School of Law
1ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ وَهْبِ بْنِ عَبْدِ رَبِّهِ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) أَ يَحُجُّ الرَّجُلُ عَنِ النَّاصِبِ فَقَالَ لا فَقُلْتُ فَإِنْ كَانَ أَبِي قَالَ فَإِنْ كَانَ أَبَاكَ فَنَعَمْ.
1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Wahab ibn ‘ Abd Rabbihi who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), if al-Hajj can be performed on behalf of one hostile to ’A’immah. He (the Imam) said, ‘No, it cannot be performed.’ I then asked, ‘Even if he is my father?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘If he is your father it is permissible.’”
2ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ قَالَ كَتَبْتُ إِلَيْهِ الرَّجُلُ يَحُجُّ عَنِ النَّاصِبِ هَلْ عَلَيْهِ إِثْمٌ إِذَا حَجَّ عَنِ النَّاصِبِ وَهَلْ يَنْفَعُ ذَلِكَ النَّاصِبَ أَمْ لا فَكَتَبَ لا يَحُجَّ عَنِ النَّاصِبِ وَلا يَحُجَّ بِهِ.
2. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Ali ibn Mahziyar from who has said the following: “I once wrote to him (the Imam) and asked, ‘If one performs al-Hajj for one hostile to ’A’immah, is it a sin and does it benefit the person hostile to ’A’immah, ‘Alayhim al-Salam ? He (the Imam) said, ‘al- Hajj is not performed for one hostile to ’A’immah and al-Hajj is not performed with him.’”

1ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَمَّنْ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ قَالَ كَتَبْتُ إِلَى أَبِي مُحَمَّدٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) أَنَّ مَوْلاكَ عَلِيَّ بْنَ مَهْزِيَارَ أَوْصَى أَنْ يُحَجَّ عَنْهُ مِنْ ضَيْعَةٍ صَيَّرَ رُبُعَهَا لَكَ فِي كُلِّ سَنَةٍ حَجَّةً إِلَى عِشْرِينَ دِينَاراً وَأَنَّهُ قَدِ انْقَطَعَ طَرِيقُ الْبَصْرَةِ فَتَضَاعَفُ الْمَئُونَةُ عَلَى النَّاسِ فَلَيْسَ يَكْتَفُونَ بِعِشْرِينَ دِينَاراً وَكَذَلِكَ أَوْصَى عِدَّةٌ مِنْ مَوَالِيكَ فِي حِجَجِهِمْ فَكَتَبَ يُجْعَلُ ثَلاثُ حِجَجٍ حَجَّتَيْنِ إِنْ شَاءَ الله.
1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from those narrated to him from Ibrahim ibn Mahziyar who has said the following: “I once wrote to abu Muhammad (a.s.), saying, ‘Your follower, Ali ibn Mahziyar has said in his will to perform al-Hajj on his behalf from an asset of which one-fourth is for you, every year one al-Hajj up to twenty dinar. The road through al-Basra is cut off and the expenses have increased; people charge more than twenty dinar and so also many of your followers have said in their wills. He (the Imam) wrote in answer, ‘Three al-Hajj must be made as two al-Hajj by the will of Allah.’”
2ـ إِبْرَاهِيمُ قَالَ وَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْحُصَيْنِيُّ أَنَّ ابْنَ عَمِّي أَوْصَى أَنْ يُحَجَّ عَنْهُ بِخَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ دِينَاراً فِي كُلِّ سَنَةٍ فَلَيْسَ يَكْفِي فَمَا تَأْمُرُ فِي ذَلِكَ فَكَتَبَ يَجْعَلُ حَجَّتَيْنِ فِي حَجَّةٍ إِنَّ الله عَالِمٌ بِذَلِكَ.
2. Ali ibn Ibrahim has said that Muhammad ibn al-Husayniy wrote to me saying that the son of his uncle has said in his will to perform al-Hajj for him with fifteen dinar every year; but it is not sufficient; what do you command in this matter? He (the Imam) wrote, ‘Two al-Hajj is made one al-Hajj; Allah knows it best.’”

Words That One Should Say When Performing al-Hajj on Behalf of Someone Else
10ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْكَرِيمِ عَنِ الْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ قُلْتُ لَهُ الرَّجُلُ يَحُجُّ عَنْ أَخِيهِ أَوْ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَوْ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنَ النَّاسِ هَلْ يَنْبَغِي لَهُ أَنْ يَتَكَلَّمَ بِشَيْءٍ قَالَ نَعَمْ يَقُولُ بَعْدَ مَا يُحْرِمُ اللهمَّ مَا أَصَابَنِي فِي سَفَرِي هَذَا مِنْ تَعَبٍ أَوْ شِدَّةٍ أَوْ بَلاءٍ أَوْ شَعَثٍ فَأْجُرْ فُلاناً فِيهِ وَأْجُرْنِي فِي قَضَائِي عَنْهُ. مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنِ ابْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنِ الْحَلَبِيِّ مِثْلَهُ.
1. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn abu Nasr from ‘Abd al-Karim from al-Halabiy who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who performs al-Hajj for his brother or father or anyone else; what is proper for him to say? He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, after assuming the state of Ihram he should say, ‘O Lord, for any fatigue, hardships, afflictions and shaken condition that I may have experienced on the way, grant reward to so and so and grant me reward for completing it on his behalf.’” Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn Sinan from ibn Muskan has narrated a similar Hadith.
